She wants nothing to do with the world. She is waiting for nature to heal her. The last thing she wants is another case. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut then Dornan, her only real friend, tracks her down. He needs her to find his runaway fianc e. Aud feels obliged to help, and finds herself up against both a sociopath so artful that the law can't touch him--and against her own demons, the specters of loss and guilt. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAud, of course, wins--she always wins--but the price is a new understanding of herself, the renunciation of her wilderness redoubt, a return to Atlanta. Nicola Griffith's \u003ci\u003eStay\u003c\/i\u003e is a ferocious masterpiece of literary noir, and in its pages Aud fuses her steely moral authority with a new, ever-evolving, tortured complexity. She emerges as a full-fledged classic noir hero (\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e)--as indomitable as Jack Reacher, sexier than La Femme Nikita, but wrecked and befuddlingly human.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49577499033873,"sku":"GOR002713481","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50099259408657,"sku":"CIN140003230XG","price":7.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52117558231313,"sku":"CIN140003230XVG","price":6.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53689625706769,"sku":"GOR005995060","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/140003230X.jpg?v=1751337229","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/stay-book-nicola-griffith-9781400032303","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
